 * With TinyMCE Advanced Version 4.6.7 occurs an error in coding while switching
   between visual and text editor
 * Step 1) writing in visual editor:
 * topic 1
    topic 2
 * Step 2) assigning listing to boh lines results in corrct coding in text editor
    - topic 1
    - topic 2
 * Step 3) insrting a break and a space in the visual editor after “topic 1”
 * · topic 1
 * · topic 2
 * Step 4) and switching to the text editor gives also a correct code, even so the“
   <br> ” is deleted:
    - topic 1
    - topic 2
 * Step 5) but switching afterwards back to the visual code results in a weard coding:
    -  <li style=”list-style-type: none”>
 *  - topic 1
 *  - topic 2
 * These works always like this with the mentioned steps above.

 * Confirmed. This seems to be caused by the “keeping the caret position on switching
   editors” feature in WP 4.9. Also happens when TinyMCE Advanced is disabled.
 * Best is to open a bug report on the core trac: [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/newticket](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/newticket)
